Sandboxie is a proprietary sandbox based isolation program for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows operating systems. It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in

which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer. When you run a program on your computer, data flows from the hard disk to the program via read operations. The data is then processed and displayed, and finally flows back from the progam to the hard disk via write operations.

Sandboxie changes the rules such that write operations do not make it back to your hard disk.

• Intercept changes to both your files and registry settings, making it virtually impossible for any software to reach outside the sandbox.

• Traps cached browser items into the sandbox as a by-product of normal operation, so when you throw away the sandbox, all the history records and other side-effects of your browsing disappear as well.

Benefits of the Isolated Sandbox:

• Secure Web Browsing: Running your Web browser under the protection of Sandboxie means that all malicious software downloaded by the browser is trapped in the sandbox and can be discarded trivially.

* The Excel clipboard problem “The picture is too large and will be truncated.” has been fixed.* Sandboxie is now built under Visual Studio 2010 and uses newer versions of the Microsoft libraries. Two new security features have been enabled for all Sandboxie binaries: DEP (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/wind … -questions) and ASLR (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_sp … domization) .* Fixed the following startup errors on the Dell Venue and other Win 8.1 tablets. SBIE2336 Error in GUI server: 11 / C0000021?. SBIE2335 Initialization failed for process Start.exe 88/0?* Fixed for Windows 8.1 update KB2919355.* Fixed several additional C0000142 (STATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED) bugs. These could also show up as “CRT not initialized” or “DLL failed to initialize” errors and could also sometimes cause the sandboxed application to crash on start.* Incompatibility with FFX 27 and Avast that caused FFX to run with no visible windows.* Chrome crash when reporting an issue under Tools->Report an issue…* Fixed a problem with DFS drives (Distributed File System)* The “InjectDll” setting would sometimes cause DLL initialization to fail with the message “CRT not initialized” or “DLL failed to initialize”.
